I noticed it a lot in a now previous life, introduce things without talking to the operators. I’m not saying pilots know it all but a quick ask for some input might have pointed out to whoever owns this that here is already a procedure that would dovetail well into this ie, no one approaches the aircraft until the beacon is off and in this Covid world the beacon doesn’t come off until the feds/state are in the aerobridge. I think with that procedure you wouldn’t even need ATC, they just clear you to the gate as per normal and your airline AMCO gives you the nod once you are on the gate and then you turn the beacon off...is simpiles!!
